GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendation 1:
Storehouses outside of the Angkor Conservancy contain fragments of sculptures, many of which originate from the temples.
It is strongly recommended to entrust junior Cambodian technicians, supervised by specialists in this field, with the job of updating the inventory of these objects, in order to assist teams working on the site to recognize fragments or complete figures. These could be put back into the architectural structure from which they definitely originated, such as the Angkor Wat cruciform terrace.
This recommendation about inventory also applies to stone stored in outlying courtyards of various temples, such as the Bayon or Angkor Wat.
